Are you a busy mom who loves her slow cooker? I don’t know what I’d do without mine. Your family will love this Asian-inspired dinner because it tastes delicious. You will love it because you can make in advance, pop it in the freezer, and later take it out to cook in the crockpot without any hassle! I made mine about 3 weeks before serving for dinner, and it held up in the freezer beautifully! As if you needed more reasons to try this — it’s nutritious (full of fiber, vitamin C and iron) and economical (only $2.82 per serving). Enjoy!
